Will you provide PHP 7 support in virtualmin?

Virtualmin

Hello,

I am using nginx, php-fpm

I have removed php 5.6

yum remove php

and installed php 7.0

yum install php70 php70-php-mysql php70-php-fpm

However, virtualmin doesn’t recognize it.

when I go to

system settings -> re-check configuration

it says no php is installed

Please add support to php7 as it is said to improve php performance.

Or, Please suggest me how to make virtualmin recognize php 7

Or, suggest me how to make nginx use php7

Thanks

using linux, centos 6.7, 64 bit, dedicated server with full root accesss

Howdy,

Yes, Virtualmin will indeed support PHP 7! That is on the todo list and should be available soon.

Nginx, that’s that sharware thing yeah?

How can I get notified when php 7 support is enabled in virtualmin?

Or, How can I get notified when a new version of virtualmin is available?

can you please suggest me the time it may take to enable php 7 support. ( days or months)

Thanks.

Release of PHP7 is soon, can’t wait to install PHP7 on my good working Virtualmin server! :slight_smile:

PHP 7 has been officially released now… http://php.net/archive/2015.php#id2015-12-03-1

Im waiting for this too. Hope to hear something soon :slight_smile:

Howdy,

PHP 7 support will be available in the next Virtualmin release – that will be out soon!

I will check the update regularly ofcourse!! Thanks a lot :slight_smile:

Just subscribing to this thread in the hope that Eric may post when PHP 7 is in Virtualmin.

11

Thanks for all of your interest!

As far as an ETA goes – while I don’t have an exact date, Joe is telling folks it will be out before Christmas.

If you’ve installed Virtualmin using the install.sh script, that update would be available when you next perform package updates.

But you can also monitor the News forum here, or @virtualmin on twitter, for notification on when it’s out.

Thanks Eric, looking forward to that.

Thanks for the updates. I have my dev box upgraded to php 7 and the speeds are awesome. Just curious if you think it will be days, weeks or months before VM supports it?

14

Hi there does virtualmin already support php7?

15

Howdy,

The next Virtualmin version will support PHP 7.

Yes, I read somewhere that PHP 7 should theoretically work in Virtualmin… but here’s my attempt to get it working and I haven’t been successful so far. I just got a reply fron andreychek that makes me wonder if it truly is compatible or not. Sound like we might jut bee all together waiting for this next Virtualmin to be release before we can move forward without hacks here and there.

Just wait for the next release, if it’s not supported at the moment you will just have to wait surely.

All good things come to those that wait.

It’s not difficult to understand is it?

Thanks for working on this next Virtualmin release !
:wink:

I hope it will solve my problem :

As I have upgrade to PHP7, Virtualmin now run all sites with www-data user… and not “mysite1” user.

Thanks for your help
:wink:

Howdy,

Well, Virtualmin’s support for PHP7 would just make it so it can be detected.

If it’s running as www-user, that indicates another problem… something configuration related.

How did you go about installing that?

You may want to go into System Settings -> Re-Check Config, and see if it detects any issues.

My guess is that a new PHP config file was installed as part of the PHP7 installation, that’s causing mod_php to override the other settings.

Hello Eric

I just take an Ubuntu 15.10 with Webmin / Virtualmin.
All was ok.

After, I upgrade to PHP7…
Nothing more.

I Re-Check the config in Virtualmin / System Settings / Re-Check Config.

No problem
except :

  • IP problem, but I always has this message about “default IP is 127.0.0.2” …
    but it always works with all others sites with PHP 5.5

  • Quota not enabled…
    not a problem

…

Thanks.
Didier
